And you may be wondering why im selling all my beautiful lovies!! Well trust me its been a hard desicion to make!! ! But i am writing in here because i do have a littttle confession to make. I am selling my birdies because me and a close friend are going into a partnership breeding Australian parrots and Cockatoos, We are going to be breeding Naso RTB Cockatoos, Samueli RTB Cockatoos, Mutation Princess Parrots, Major Mitchells Cockatoos and possibly more down the track. We allready have all the birds listed above but may acquire more aussie birdies later on including Western Longbilled Corellas, WA Galahs and mabye a few smaller native parrots. I am so excited about it all! we are nearly all ready to go with some of the birds, other need a little longer to mature but we are both happy to wait. It has been a hard desicion emotionally and finacially for me as i really do love my lovies so much, but with breeding the rest of the birds i dont think ill have the time to spend with them! plus my sister is complaining about the noise they make constantly The too's wont be at my house so the noise factor isnt a worry then, i am at my friends house just about all the time so i will still get my daily bird fix

You missed out on King Parrots! We need more people to breed them and raise them as pets! Totally underrated bird! Good luck with your new adventure

Good luck with the new venture Megan. Black cockies are one of my favourites, but are a bit to expensive for me at the moment. Shaun

The RTB cockies i got werent too bad Sypher, i guess its all about who you know and what mates rates they are going to give you!! The naso's cost me $1800 each, they are both 6 years old and have had one clutch of babies so are a proven pair. i think i got a bloody fabulous deal on them! Ive seen mature single hens for up to $4000 before!!

Best of luck with the new venture, it is an exciting time. King Parrots are one of my "to get" birdies. Gee $75 is cheap, wish I was around at the time.

I am trying to work out where I can put a big enough aviary in to put a pair of king in. There is a pair down here that are really nice VERY big but they want $450 for the pair

I would happily pay the $450 for the pair if they where nice and had reared bubs before. but im notorious for paying too much for birds lol ;D, only if they are what i want and meet all of my requirements anyway!
